Unlucky numbers in loss for Timber Rattlers
June 27, 2004 - Midwest League (MWL) Wisconsin Timber RattlersPomeranz struck out six and didn't allow a hit over the first three innings. Michael Cox picked up the first Rattler hit of the game with a lead-off double in the fourth. One out later, Bryan LaHair, who was making his Rattler debut, hit a home run just over the wall in left field for his first hit as a Rattler.
Rattler starting pitcher Brandon Moorhead was cruising through six innings. He allowed five hits and had struck out seven. Then, the seventh inning happened.
Matt Pagnozzi started the inning with a sinking line drive to center. Wladimir Balentien had the ball pop out of his glove for an error. Calvin Hayes reached on an infield single. Moorhead committed a balk to move the tying runs into scoring position. Monegan sent a grounder to second with the infield back. Hyung Cho tried to get Pagnozzi at the plate, but the throw skipped in and the Chiefs got on the board.
Juan Ovalles relieved Moorhead and his first pitch to Cody Haerther was smacked for an RBI single to tied the game 2-2. Parker dropped a sacrifice bunt to move runners to second and third. The next nine batters reached in the inning. Daric Barton was walked intentionally to load the bases and set up the double play. John-Paul Davis sent a high chopper to short that was misplayed and the Chiefs took the lead. Joe Mather and Omar Pena followed with RBI singles to chase Ovalles and bring Ruben Castillo out of the bullpen.
Castillo gave up an RBI single to Pagnozzi and an error on the play allowed a second run to score. Hayes singled to load the bases and Monegan followed with a three run double. Haerther doubled in Monegan and Parker homered for a 13-2 Peoria lead.
Mike Nesbit drove in a Rattler run in the bottom of the seventh with a sacrifice fly and LeHair gave himself a three RBI day with a run scoring double in the bottom of the eighth.
Parker hit his second homer of the game in the ninth to make it 15-4.
Nesbit homered to left in the bottom of the ninth for the final score.
The Rattlers welcome the Dayton Dragons to town for a four game series starting Monday. Tom Oldham (4-3, 3.35ERA) is the scheduled starting pitcher for the Rattlers. Dayton will send Justin Gillman (0-1, 7.62) to the hill. Game time is 7:05pm.

I was touring what reminded me of the Cheyenne Mountain nuclear bunker – one of the safest places on earth. Except in this case, this was one of the safest places for your enterprise data on earth. "The entrance will open, you will drive in, and an armed guard will be out to escort you."
That was the beginning of my tour of a Tier 4 datacenter, furthest from any natural disaster. 100% guaranteed up time.
I was staking out where we would launch our newest version of the Infochimps Big Data cloud service - our enterprise cloud service would soon be launched in the most trusted datacenter in the world, along side the largest enterprise data installations in the world.
Managed service market?
Analysts forecast that worldwide IT spend in 2013 will be $2.1 trillion with an annual growth rate of 6% (CAGR). Most of this will be spending for equipment being installed within the enterprise datacenter.
This being said, when you talk to CIOs of the Fortune 1000 or of the Global 2000, you will find out that many (if not most) have initiated a datacenter consolidation project, with the end-goal of moving to a 30%/70% mix of infrastructure under internal management versus outsourced infrastructure.
Envision a world where there's an outsourced managed service market that is larger than on-premise and public cloud markets. It might look something like this:
Platform vendors like Teradata, Oracle, and IBM continue to own the on-premise market, servicing Fortune 1000. Public cloud providers like Amazon, Rackspace, and soon Google Compute own long-tail deployments supporting smaller companies.
And then there is the emerging market of cloud services which live in trusted data centers like Equinix, Digital Reality, Telx, Savvis, Terremark, InterNAP, SwitchNAP, and SoftLayer.
When you decide to outsource to a third party datacenter partner like those mentioned above, you are offered an instant menu of service providers who make up a New Cloud Ecosystem.
Why is this important? Because as a "tenant" in your trusted outsourced datacenter, you have a plethora of cloud services who have launched within the same data center....right where your data lives. These cloud providers range from infrastructure clouds like Amazon's EC2, or cloud storage, disaster recovery and high availability services, and more.
Morgan Stanley classified the size of the 2013 cloud service market across three main categories:
- Private Cloud (8% CAGR)
- Virtual Private Cloud (25% CAGR)
- Public Cloud (50% CAGR)
Public Cloud, although small, is growing the fastest at 50%. The on-premise infrastructure market grows at 8%.....and in between is the Virtual Private Cloud in third party datacenters growing at 25%.
If public cloud is too risky while on-premise being outsourced due to economics, I think the "white space" is this emerging market in the middle...the New Cloud Ecosystem.
Where does your data infrastructure live?

Below is some of what coach Bob Stoops had to say about his team's 58-35 win over Kansas State…
On the defense in the second half:
Yeah (we played better), but also in the first half we forced quite a few turnovers in short field a good number of times.
The defense was put on the short field a couple of times, too.
I think there were 11 different possessions where the offense got it in within 60 yards.
When that happens you've got a chance to score.
On Travis Lewis and Keenan Clayton:
I think they need to get better, but the more experience they get they're going to keep getting better.
Travis stood out with 15 tackles, 2 INTs. Keenan stripping the ball.
I know they'll continue to get better gaining experience.
Travis is a heck of an athlete.
On Austin Box's first start:
He did OK. I think there's more there. We expect him to play better and better. Again, I think it will be something ongoing.
On any injuries:
I don't see anything right now that's very significant.

Rice named to Red Cross diversity council
Donna S. Rice, associate vice president for student affairs, has been appointed to a one-year term on the 12-member National Diversity Advisory Council of the American Red Cross.
Widely recognized in educational circles for her work aimed at understanding and promoting cultural diversity, Rice has been involved with the local chapter of the Red Cross since 1993.
The council advises the Red Cross Board of Governor's Human Resources Committee on ways to achieve greater diversity in services, recipients and both the paid and volunteer workforce.
A former director of UB's Educational Opportunity Center, Rice has held numerous teaching and administrative positions at the university since 1972.
For more than 15 years, she worked with the university's English Language Institute. In 1981, she was named director-in-residence for UB's English Language Training Center in Beijing, becoming the first African American to teach English in the Chinese capital.
She is serving a second term on the American Association of University Administrators' board of directors, and was coordinator of the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators mentoring network.
Faculty input needed
Faculty can directly participate in information technology planning using a quick and easy Web tool developed by the Provost's Office, Office of Educational Technology and CIT.
A short, online, point-and-click survey asks faculty what software products they require as personal productivity tools, and/or for instruction. Results from the survey will help shape campus decisions as to what software will be made available to faculty through inexpensive site licenses, what software will be available to students in department and public labs, what software will be included on UB's popular Tech Tools CD and what self-help training modules will be available to prepare students for instruction using computer technology.
Planning for the Fall 2000 semester already is under way, so there is an urgent need for immediate faculty participation. The survey's is available at http://wings.buffalo.edu/survey/. To ensure confidentiality, participants are asked to logon using their UNIX ID and password.
For further information, contact Barry Eckert, associate provost for educational technology, at 645-2992.

IREWG announces lectureship
The Institute for Research and Education on Women and Gender (IREWG) has announced the establishment of the Janice L. Moritz Lectureship Fund.
The fund is named in honor of a woman IREWG directors call "one of Western New York's most effective champions for the rights of women and workers in higher education."
Moritz retired in January after more than 20 years of service as a New York State United Teachers' labor relations specialist assigned to United University Professions (UUP), the union that represents SUNY's faculty and professional employees.
The first Janice Moritz Lecture, which will focus on women and labor, will be delivered by Moritz in Fall 2000.
Moritz worked primarily with the four area chapters of UUP: the UB Buffalo Center Chapter, the UB Health Sciences Center Chapter and the Buffalo State College and Fredonia State College chapters. At one time, she was the only woman labor-relations specialist in NYSUT's Western New York Regional Office.
Moritz helped to arbitrate successfully more than a dozen decisions favorable to union members that are now part of the New York State record, and obtained hundreds of favorable decisions at lower levels of the grievance process.
For further information, contact IREWG at 829-3451.

Communication and development
Language(s): English, Russian
UNESCO, in collaboration with the Public Service Broadcasting Trust (PSBT), created a series of instructional "how to" videos to provide basic, conceptual and technical understanding of the audio-visual film production, with the special focus on the independent documentary.
With the increasing availability of low cost technologies for both production and post-production, this training material will help to fulfil a vital need for the democratization of the non-print media. It will help individuals and communities to produce their own content, specific to their needs, values and lifestyles.
Through this series of training modules, UNESCO and PSBT intend to support local communication by facilitating the democratization of content and by providing basic and easily comprehensible self-training materials that are inexpensively distributed to potential content creators.
The documentary was used as the framework for the training content because it is easily distributed, accessible and complete genre and an alternative to one used by the commercially driven or state-run television.
The Video Training Basics project aims to equip a generation of film makers and viewers with the basic tools that are essential to use the audiovisual medium effectively in order to demonstrate the plurality of views and issues that form civil society.
The Video Training Basics are divided into three modules: Camera Module, Sound module and Editing module.

| PDF 290Kb |
Sacura boulengeri (Heemstra, 1973) is a rare serranid fish (Subfamily: Anthiinae) having very distinct distribution in the western Indian Ocean. The rarity of the species is evident from earlier reports and, so far, no related studies on the species have been published except on taxonomy and distributional records. In the present investigation, the length-weight relationship of Sacura boulengeri was estimated to be W = 0.0777 × L2.690 (with 95% confidence intervals for b and r2). An analysis of the stomach contents revealed that sergestid shrimps and copepods were the major food items of the diet.

To the editor:
Oil speculation certainly plays its role in the cost of a gallon of gas at the pump, but the service stations/oil companies seem to play their part. I have been following the daily market reports vs. cost of a gallon of gas at the pump and provide the following cost-per-gallon based upon a given day's oil market result. On Feb. 15, oil traded at $101.80 and gas sold for $3.35. On March 1, oil traded at $108.84 and gas sold for $3.65. Wednesday, oil fell by $2.54 to $101.47, yet gas ROSE to $3.77. Hey, quit gouging us!

Read, R., 2007. Labour and love: competing constructions of 'care' in a Czech nursing home. Critique of Anthropology, 27 (2), pp. 203-222.
Full text available as:
PDF Restricted to Registered users only 168kB |
Post-1989 structural reforms to the Czech health care service allowed for the introduction of new models of the nurse—patient relationship and new ideals of adequate nursing care. This article follows how these shifts were manifested in social relations within a Prague-based nursing home, founded by Borromeo nuns in the mid 1990s. Focusing on ideas about the place of emotional identification with patients amongst a range of nursing staff in the home (nuns, civil nurses and managers), this article explores how ideologies of care are linked to different articulations of modernity and, in particular, to changing configurations of public and private as embodied aspects of the modern self.

Abstract | 'Jihad' is a highly charged word. Often mistranslated as 'Holy War', it has become synonymous with terrorism. Current political events have entirely failed to take account of the subtlety and complexity of jihad. Like many concepts with a long history, different cultural ideas have influenced the religious aspects of jihad. As a result its original meaning has been adapted, modified and destabilized - never more than at the present time. How does jihad manifest itself in Muslims' everyday lives? What impact has 9/11 and its backlash had on jihad? By observing the current crisis of identity among ordinary Muslims, this timely book explores why, and in what circumstances Muslims speak of jihad. In the end, jihad is what Muslims say it is. Marranci offers us a nuanced and sophisticated anthropological understanding of Muslims' lives far beyond the predictable cliches. Have a look at the author's blog (http://marranci.wordpress.com. Explores the different cultural ideas that have influenced the religious aspects of jihad. 'Jihad', a term often mistranslated as 'Holy War', has become synonymous with terrorism. This book, by observing the crisis of identity among ordinary Muslims, explores why, and in what circumstances Muslims speak of jihad.

Green Plains Renewable Energy Inc. Stock Downgraded (GPRE)
-- Green Plains Renewable Energy (Nasdaq:
GPRE) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to sell. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its deteriorating net income, generally weak debt management, disappointing return on equity, poor profit margins and feeble growth in its earnings per share.
Highlights from the ratings report include:
- GREEN PLAINS RENEWABLE ENRGY's earnings per share declined by 48.1% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. We feel it is likely to report a decline in earnings in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, GREEN PLAINS RENEWABLE ENRGY increased its bottom line by earning $1.52 versus $0.78 in the prior year. For the next year, the market is expecting a contraction of 45.4% in earnings ($0.83 versus $1.52).
- The gross profit margin for GREEN PLAINS RENEWABLE ENRGY is currently extremely low, coming in at 4.10%. It has decreased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 0.60% trails that of the industry average.
- Current return on equity is lower than its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a clear sign of weakness within the company. In comparison to the other companies in the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry and the overall market, GREEN PLAINS RENEWABLE ENRGY's return on equity is significantly below that of the industry average and is below that of the S&P 500.
- The debt-to-equity ratio of 1.03 is relatively high when compared with the industry average, suggesting a need for better debt level management.
- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 42.6% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from $8.68 million to $4.98 million.

FAIRFIELD/NEWTOWN, Connecticut (Reuters) - One boy was buried in his hero's football jersey in a small white coffin. Balloons and a teddy bear welcomed mourners to the funeral of his first grade schoolmate.
The two funerals on Monday ushered in what will be a week of memorial services and burials for the 20 children and six adults massacred at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.
Mourners packed into the funeral for the youngest victim, Noah Pozner, age 6.
"Every time I told Noah, 'I love you,' he always answered, 'Not as much as I love you,'" his mother, Veronique Pozner, told mourners at his funeral, recalled Rabbi Edgar Gluck after the burial service.
The deaths of so many children, all ages 6 and 7, sparked new talk of gun control in Washington, long reluctant to take on the highly charged issue, with U.S. President Barack Obama meeting key advisers and one pro-gun senator calling on the nation's gun lobby to rethink its position.
The shooting sent waves of anxiety across the country on the first school day since a 20-year-old gunman opened fire on the students and teachers in the close-knit community, located 80 miles northeast of New York City, last week.
Lockdowns were declared at schools in nearby Connecticut and New York towns on fears of danger that turned out to be unfounded. In southern California, Indiana, Tennessee and Ohio, authorities arrested men on Sunday for making threats against schools.
Newtown's schools remained closed after a weekend of mourning that followed Adam Lanza's shooting spree on Friday that claimed 28 lives, including his mother's and his own.
At the funeral for Jack Pinto, also 6, in Newtown, about a half dozen children wearing a wrestling's club gold medals took off the awards and gave them to their teammate's parents. A New York Giants fan, Jack was dressed in a red-and-white jersey with receiver Victor Cruz's number 80 as he lay in an open white casket.
"Jack was an incredibly loving and vivacious young boy, appreciated by all who knew him for his lively and giving spirit and steely determination," his parents, Dean and Tricia Pinto, and brother said in his obituary in the Newtown Bee newspaper.
In Fairfield, a teddy bear and bouquet of white flowers lay at the base of an oak tree outside the Jewish service for Pozner, whose twin sister, Arielle, escaped unhurt.
"Noah was an impish, larger-than-life little boy," his parents and four siblings said in an obituary, also in the Bee. "Everything he did conveyed action and energy through love. He was the light of our family, a little soul devoid of spite."
A day after meeting with families of victims and addressing a shocked nation from Newtown, Obama on Monday held a White House meeting with Vice President Joe Biden and three Cabinet members to discuss ways to respond.
An administration spokesman said Obama's plan for action to curb violence includes gun control "but is far from all of it." He declined to offer specific details.
Gun control is a politically charged topic in the United States, with the powerful National Rifle Association mustering strong resistance to tighter rules on gun ownership.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg lashed out at fellow politicians for their reluctance to take on the gun lobby.
"Somehow or other, we've come to think that getting re-elected is more important than saving lives, that political power is more important than saving lives," he said in an angry, emotional press conference at New York City Hall. "Enough."
A growing number of U.S. lawmakers called for a look at curbing assault weapons like the one used in the massacre. The ban on the weapons expired in 2004.
"Never before have we seen our babies slaughtered. This never happened in America, that I can recall," said Senator Joe Manchin, a West Virginia Democrat who has earned top marks from the gun industry. "This has changed where we go from here."
A Reuters/Ipsos poll found that the massacre had influenced Americans' thinking on guns. Some 50 percent of people surveyed after the shooting agreed that "gun ownership should have strong regulations of restrictions," up from 42 percent who agreed with that statement before Friday's shooting.
Police said it could take months for them to finish their investigation into the attack, which started when Adam Lanza killed his mother, Nancy, at home, before driving to the school armed with a Bushmaster AR 15 rifle and two handguns. He left a shotgun in his car.
Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy said he had decided on Friday to break the news to the parents and relatives who had spent hours waiting outside the school that their children were dead. That marked a departure from normal practice as officials were still struggling to formally identify all the bodies.
"There was a reluctance to tell parents and loved ones that the person they were waiting for was not going to return," Malloy said in a tearful press conference. "I made the decision that to have that go on any longer was wrong. I did it."
With Newtown schools closed, about 200 volunteers set up an indoor play area to keep children busy. Inside a local youth academy, volunteers urged a boy wearing Spider-Man sneakers, a girl carrying a stuffed Dalmatian toy and about 1,000 other children to join in athletics, board games and arts and crafts.

Liner Note Author: Chuck Young. | |
The late Tammy Wynette was one of the queens of country music. Along with her peers Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton, she virtually defined country singing from the female side of the equation. Her voice balanced strength and vulnerability, singing tales of heartbreak, divorce, romance and the struggle of the flesh vs.the spirit. Wynette could stand by her man ("I'll See Him Through"), yet she knew when to tell him enough was enough: witness the defiant honky-tonk whirl "Your Good Girl's Gonna Go Bad." There are few better examples of country soul than the gently pleading "'Til I Can Make It On My Own" or "Singing My Song." This budget-priced collection is a perfect introduction for those who haven't heard one of the finest American country singers, and a nice find for fans who have worn out her records. |

text: The Wonder Woman's Battle Armour wiki last edited by NightFang on 12/31/13 06:16PM View full history Throughout the history of the Wonder Woman character she has occasionally chosen to don armour face a stronger threat. It should be remembered that there is often a need for this as Wonder Woman is not technically impervious to harm though she is quite durable. This armour is more common in the modern era. The first time she was seen to don it was during the challenge of the gods. The second time she donned the armour was against Devastation which incorporated a bird of prey motif. This iteration of the armour is the one motly commonly seen, and one which both Cassie and Donna also wear at times. As was reimagined under George Perez in the 1980s reboot, the traditional Wonder Woman costume is actually simply the breastplate portion of the full armour, thus technically Diana is most often wearing the armour, if only a piece of it.
